Sorry.... Our Choices; Turd Sandwhich & Giant Doushe

[mrdemocrat78]

Okay, Okay, I was just referencing the south park episode where the kids have to vote, and their choice is between a giant doushe and a turd sandwhich.

Not calling barack a "turd" and not calling hillary a "doushe"

i just find it ironic how unhappy we all seem to be with the best two candidates we have had in years.

1. Congrats for being the first DUer I've ever put on Ignore in 4 years.

3. Thanks.

I was just reading someone elses post about how he doesn't like either of them, and as he started listing why, it just popped into my head, and I had to post it.

13. Agreed

While not the first one to be on my list, words do have meaning and it's important to recognize this.

2. I'd rather vote for the Giant German (?) unless you mean Adolf Hitler.

You must mean douche, as in douche bag.

4. So, ignoring the fact that you wrote "German" instead of "Douche,"

you just called a black guy "a turd" and a woman "a douche."

Fuck you.

5. Sorry, I don't use the stuff.

I did a google search and that's what came up. So sue me for mispelling a word.

And I didn't call them that, Matt Stone & Trey Parker did.

And honestly, I wasn't "calling" either of them one... I was just saying with all the complaints they are getting on here, from both sides, it would appear that we don't have much of a choice.

Accoring to the average duer

6. No, Stone and Parker called generic bad candidates "turd/douche."

You just said, "Hey, guys! One guy has black skin: turd! One of 'em is a woman: douche! LOLLERSKATES!"

7. The intent wasn't...

Oh forget it. I just found it funny. Sometimes I have a pretty sick sense of humor.

It just popped into my head and out my fingers.

8. You obviously never saw the episode. Watch it.

Episode 119, "Douche and Turd."

South Park Elementary was forced by PETA to change their mascot from the "Cows" because it was derogatory to animals.

And so, based on the votes of the children, the mascot choices were a Turd Sandwich or a Giant Douche.

The conflict in the episode came when Stan Marsh didn't want to vote. Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs comes to town with his "Vote or Die" campaign - in other words, if he doesn't vote, Combs will kill him.

The central point is that in all elections - such as the Bush/Kerry one, when this episode was made - this is your choice, as the song said:

Let's get out and vote!
Let's make our voices heard.
We've been given the right to choose,
between a douche and a turd.
It’s democracy in action!
Put your freedom to the test.
A big fat turd or a stupid douche,
which do you like best?

So take your F word and stick it until you know what you're talking about, you illiterate non-TV-viewer.

10. Yes, I did watch it. And the OP's point was to explain just how superficially accurate the choices

of "turd" and "douche" were. He even explained how racist/sexist it would sound.

[mrdemocrat78]

11. No, i wasn't trying to put it that way

i just found it ironic that everyone has so many complaints about the two of them, and it reminded me of the cartoon. Anyway, I took it down. So you can knock it off. Was just trying to be funny.

9. I don't like Hillary but I still wouldn't call her a turd.
